It’s more apparent here how the skills of various cast members seen in Goldie’s introduction come into play. She’s always well-meaning, but can sometimes let her friends down this way.
As in V olume O ne, everything is beautifully designed and drawn by Brittney Williams, making good use of the early 1960s period exotica, while the cast are cheerful and enthusiastic, none more so than Goldie herself, who drags others along with her single-minded personality.Ī nice aspect of Goldie Vance is that Goldie’s natural exuberance sometimes takes over when she’s caught in the moment, and she does or says something without really thinking it through. The clues are all subtly worked in and all necessary information dropped early, giving Goldie the chance to strut her skills. There’s actually a perfectly reasonable explanation in the plot Hope Larson cleverly stitches together.
That certainly sets her detective instincts going. Teenager Goldie Vance has grown up at the hotel her father manages in Florida, so knows the staff and the area, but she can still occasionally be surprised, like the day a teenage astronaut in full costume washes up on the beach.
